Tune: Christchurch [Steggall]
(\'Now is eternal life\')
*******
Passing through meadows green
God\'s creation is seen
For He has it all made
In His beauties arrayed
Nature unspoiled by human blight
Viewed resplendent to our delight
Yet here, conservation
Inhibit species none
But do for them provide
They cannot be denied
For sharing earth\'s resources, this
Man and beast in peace co-exists
Weep sad, you willow trees
We espy clusters, these
Growing tall, shadowing
Shelter from rain, sun bring
They weep where man\'s greed and misuse
Have damaged lands with no excuse
Here too be birds resting
And their young do they bring
Within sanctuary there
With humans they do share
In pleasant joys by river\'s side
Taking life daily in their stride
\'Tis all works marvellous
God does great things for us
Though Spring, Summer, and Fall
And Winter, He o\'er all
We His sheep, He through pastures guides
His presence from us He not hides
Leaving our country lane
To turn to town again
Or river\'s ramble, stroll
Where\'er we be, our soul
Is strengthened, supported by you
Lord, you us help and us renew
